Check out this @AmCollSurgeons press release featuring our study findings! We'll continue to work with our Sierra Leone collaborator @sambajallohMD and many others to disseminate basic hemorrhage control methods that have lifesaving potential worldwide.
“This study is a validation that regular, ordinary people—if you train them and give them a chance and empower them to do a public good and stop bleeding—can stop bleeding with a successful outcome.” - @LenworthJacobs

Our team's work on the surgical subspecialist workforce of West Africa is officially published in Surgery! 🥳
A call to action @NJMSDeptSurgery @NJMSGlobalSurg in @SurgJournal “These results suggest that investing in training programs is the most valuable potential strategy to address the shortage of surgical subspecialists in West Africa.” https://t.co/XRvMOQU4h8

Rutgers CGS is helping to bring Stop the Bleed techniques to the community in the virtual social-distancing era. Seen below: students learning STB by videoconferencing. Each student uses a pre-made, pre-sanitized kit of materials to practice skills during class.
